I shouted angrily, “Go ahead, call the police now, and let them catch that little bastard.”
“I won’t rest until I chop that beast today.”
Jaslene was scared by my big axe, and she recoiled.
I pushed her aside and rushed in.
Jordan came out with people before I could search the room.
Cody just stood behind him, making faces and sticking out his tongue at me, without a hint of remorse.
Jordan frowned and glared at me disapprovingly.
“Isabella, who were you scaring with all that shouting and screaming?”
I pointed at Cody behind him and said sternly, “Do you know what this little beast did to Alena? As Alena’s biological father, she is lying in the hospital because of him, and yet you still defend this animal.”
Jordan’s eyes were a bit evasive, but he still stood up for Cody.
Chapter 10
“It is inevitable for children to play and roughhouse with each other, and Cody didn’t mean to do it on purpose.”
I was so angry that I wanted to kill someone.
“Then you ask him to push me too, I also can’t say it was intentional, will you agree?”
Madelynn hurriedly jumped out.
“Isabella, is it fun for you to bully children like this? It’s just a small injury, we can just compensate for it.”
“How much money do you want? Name your price.”
Can this be solved with money?
Their contemptuous attitude made me want to rush over and kill this group of animals.
I suppressed my anger forcefully.
Cody was too young, so even if he pursued it, it would only result in losing money.
The suffering my daughter endured cannot be compensated for in any way.
So I couldn’t be impulsive, let alone just give up like that.
I stared at Jordan and questioned, “Alena is your only child, and you just watched your child being bullied like this?”
Jaslene listened to my constant cursing and became extremely confused.
“Who said my son only has a daughter? Cody is my grandson, and our Harrington family is doing well,” I said, pretending to be surprised as I looked at them.
“Madelynn, Cody was your and Jordan’s son?”
Madelynn sneered, “Oh really? Your belly is useless, unable to give birth to a son. My belly, on the other hand, is capable, as I gave birth to Cody for Jordan.”
“It’s no use being envious, who made you only capable of producing loss–making goods?”
I shook my head in disbelief, “Wow, so you two have been hiding this secret from me for so long.”
“I cursed you to have a miserable death.”
Jordan’s face turned cold as he said, “Get out, you are not welcome here.”
Once Jaslene left her house, I immediately went to the prison on the outskirts to schedule a visitation time.
Having done everything, I returned to the hospital and peacefully accompanied my daughter.
My mother looked at me with concern and said, “I consulted a lawyer, and Cody is too young. Even if we want to sue them, we can only ask his mother to pay for some medical expenses. We can’t do anything to him.”
“Why was Alena so pitiful?”
Seeing my mom crying, I also felt extremely upset.
I held her hand and comforted her, saying, “Mom, we have to believe in karma. They have done so many bad things, they will face retribution.”
My daughter stayed in the hospital for a week and finally could be discharged.
The day after being discharged, I made an appointment with Madelynn and Jordan to discuss compensation matters.
I told Madelynn that, in addition to the medical expenses, I also demanded Cody to kneel down and apologize to my daughter.
Madelynn coldly refused and even insulted me, saying Lwas sick.
She said I wasn’t serious about talking and left with Jordan. They had just walked out of the coffee shop.
Suddenly, a van came speeding towards the two of them and crashed straight into them.
“Bang!”
There was a loud noise, and screams erupted around.
